Jeffrey M. Halperin, Ph.D. is a Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Queens College and The Graduate Center of the City University of New York (CUNY), and a full-time member of the Neuropsychology Doctoral faculty.   In addition, he is a Professorial Lecturer in the Department of Psychiatry at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine and a licensed Psychologist in New York State. For over two decades Dr. Halperin has been conducting research examining diagnostic and treatment issues, as well as neural functioning, in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity

disorder (AD/HD) and other disruptive behavior disorders. A particular focus of his research is on how early childhood characteristics predict later outcomes, and the development of interventions to alter problematic trajectories.  Dr. Halperin’s research has been funded continually throughout the past 20 years by the National Institutes of Health, and he has published more than 100 scientific papers relating to ADHD, childhood psychopathology and child development. Dr. Halperin is now running 3 federally-funded projects in the Queens College Child Health and Development program: TEAMS, Queens College Preschool Project, ADHD: Neural Correlates of Adult Outcomes.

Dr. Anil Chacko is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at Queens College and also holds an appointment as an Assistant Clinical Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Since his arrival as a Fellow in the Department of Psychiatry at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine he has collaborated with the Drs. Halperin and Marks as well as the Queens College Preschool Project staff on supporting and developing research associated with the Queens College Preschool Project.

For the past decade, his clinical and research interests have focused on understanding the presentation and variable course of disruptive behavior problems in children and, through these efforts, developing effective, engaging, and efficient multimodal, preventive and treatment models for these children within clinical and community contexts. Dr. Chacko is now starting to recruit for the CogBPT study.
